Pulmonologist 's  Response
thanks for asking your question
i completely understand your problem
no need to panic, the most common cause in young person is gastritis or peptic ulcer which can cause central chest pain.
for this you can use a proton pump inhibitor like pantoprazole and you can consult a pulmonologist or a general physician .
if gp wants to get an ecg done to rule out other causes , that would be better

thanks/ regards
feel free to ask more questions
may god bless you with good health
